Yah. I’ve been curious as to why F9 didn’t try to buy SSS when it was sold to Airbus. If we’re really going to grow as much as is claimed within the next 5 to 10 years, it would seem logical to have complete control of both the costs and the logistics/scheduling of the training device(s).

SSS and/or Airbus will certainly be making a profit renting sim time. Seems like the greedy bastards at Indigo would want to capture this profit rather than making money for a different entity.

All in the world of high finance, I guess. They’re saving so much on my wages that they don’t have to be careful in other aspects of the business. :-)
